Ibbotson.“As a reminder, these funds will be used exclusively in research (mobilisation of sea and air transport, exploration of the seabed, etc) and help to families. Thanks again.”The title of the campaign, ‘#NoDejenDeBuscar Emiliano Sala’, translates to ‘Don’t Stop Looking for Emiliano Sala’ and was set up in the wake of the search for Sala and pilot Dave Ibbotson ending on Thursday.A light aircraft carrying the pair went missing over the Channel Islands on Monday evening, but a three-day search found “no trace” of the Piper Malibu.Sala was flying back to Cardiff from Nantes having said goodbye to his former team-mates after completing a transfer to Premier League side Cardiff for a club-record fee.
